Washroom sealing in Forest Hill
Our washroom work covers offices, hotels, schools and colleges, leisure centres and gyms, clinics and care homes, along with staff kitchens and tea points. The products and the method are chosen for how heavily each space is used. We work on urinals and WCs, kitchens and tea points and showers, trays and wet room floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are failed sealant in a tea point or staff kitchen and sealant stained black around basins and showers. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Forest Hill it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Many London buildings can’t close every toilet at once. We work through washrooms floor by floor or core by core, at times agreed with you.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Why act early in Forest Hill
Sealing on top of old silicone saves nothing. Silicone won’t grip silicone, so it lifts and holds moisture underneath. Cutting out completely and cleaning back takes a little longer and lasts. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

When to call us in Forest Hill
Warmth, moisture and soap residue are exactly what mould needs, and silicone joints hold onto all three. Even anti-mould grades can be colonised over time where extraction is poor.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Washrooms that look worn because of the sealant
- Failed joints along IPS and cubicle panels
- A new bead over an old one coming away
- Open joints along basins and vanity units
Toilets at colleges like Christ the King: Aquinas Sixth Form College (to the north of Forest Hill) take heavy use from students and staff alike.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
Sanitary sealant for Forest Hill buildings
Two care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from Forest Hill. Care home wet rooms and en suites are used every day and cleaned hard, which tells on the silicone. We plan the work with the manager so residents are disturbed as little as possible. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Forest Hill. Hotel en suites take daily use, and tired silicone at trays and basins is one of the first things guests notice. The work can go floor by floor, agreed with housekeeping.
Healthcare washrooms on sites such as University Hospital Lewisham (to the east of Forest Hill) are resealed area by area, under the site’s own infection-control rules. For a hall at a building such as Honor Oak Christian Fellowship Centre, resealing the kitchen and toilets can be fitted between bookings.

What we need to price the job

- Your programme or deadline
- Any specification or named product
- The type of building and who uses it
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over if you’d rather talk the job through.
Looking after the joints
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Mention any site permits or estates rules at quote stage
- Note failing joints building by building
- Leave signs up until the cure time is over
- Make sure washroom ventilation is running
Mild cleaning products and non-abrasive cloths look after sanitary silicone best. Aggressive descalers, solvents and scouring pads shorten its life and give mould a start.
Inspectors look at whether kitchen surfaces can be kept clean. Resealing sinks, worktops and splashbacks before an inspection is a simple step.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Questions about Forest Hill
Can you work in a care home near Forest Hill with residents in?
Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we’ll work to them.
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Share the building’s contractor rules and we will work to them. We allow for the ULEZ, which covers every borough
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
Is old silicone taken out first?
The failed bead is always removed. Fresh silicone can’t key to an old bead, so sealing over it soon peels.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
On site: what to expect
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Forest Hill can be scarce. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.
- First, the phasing is agreed so facilities stay open.
- Anything behind the joints that needs another trade is flagged.
- Failed sealant and residue are stripped out.
- We reseal with the grade suited to each area.
- We confirm reopening times for each washroom.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
